Well\
, we could divulge the plot of this complex and laugh-out-loud thriller bu
t then we might have to kill you. Suffice it to say\, Accompli
ce\, which won the prestigious Edgar Award (the ‘Oscar’ of C
rime) and the Dramalogue Award for Best Play\, begins like many convention
al English thrillers. It is set in a lovely country house where a wife and
her lover plan to murder her stuffy husband. Conventional\, yes? Well buc
kle up\, because Accomplice has enough plot twists\, character twists and
compromising situations to spin the British comic-thriller genre on its ea
r. Director Stephen Rothman (Parasite Drag 2012\, Leap Year
em> this season) has lured back his partners in crime from last summer’s d
ark comedy\, Parasite Drag to literally take a stab at this intri
cately hilarious and deceptive comedy-thriller.
